THE INSTITUTE FOR MATHEMATICS AND ITS APPLICATIONS (http://www.ima.umn.edu/) at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota offers two kinds of postdoc opportunities.

IMA POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIPS will be hired in connection with the 2005-2006 thematic program at the IMA on IMAGING. These positions provide an excellent opportunity for mathematical scientists near the beginning of their career who have a background in and/or an interest in learning about imaging science and its mathematical underpinnings. IMA postdoctoral fellowships run one to two years, at the option of the holder, starting September 1, 2005. In the second year of the appointment there are a variety of options to enhance career development, including participation in the 2006-2007 academic year program on "Applications of Algebraic Geometry", teaching, and working on an industrial project. Postdoctoral members receive a salary of $45,000 annually, and a travel allowance. Documentation of completion of all requirements for a doctoral degree in mathematics or a related area is required by the start of the appointment and within the last three years.

IMA INDUSTRIAL POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWSHIPS are designed to prepare mathematicians for research careers in industry or involving industrial interaction. IMA industrial postdoctoral fellowships run two years starting September 1, 2005. They are funded jointly by the IMA and an industrial sponsor, and holders devote 50% effort to their own research and the IMA program and 50% effort working with industrial scientists. Industrial postdoctoral fellowships receive a salary of $45,000 annually, and a travel allowance. Documentation of completion of all requirements for a doctoral degree in mathematics or a related area is required by the start of the appointment and within the last three years.

Application forms for both typese of postdoc positions are at:
